Thanx for replying. Yes. I think this is a great forum. Been here many times before I signed up.

OK. I edited this post a little bit. BTW I found a service manual (1700 page one)

OK. Ill continue here then. Added some pictures and YT links…………..

IT (the JEEP) have been rolling around 260000 km or 161 556.51 miles

Looked at the ERG/turbo once again. Going to unbolt the turbo tomorrow looking for oil leaks and fan wobble.


I have 1 concern tho (pic). Seems to some kind of oil connection on the tubo. Its leaking oil. Any thoughts on that?

NO problems taking the oil filler cap off. Nothing happens


As I said before. It starts up and drives normally (IMAO). When the engine is “cold” one can clearly hear some kind of strange engine noise.

When IT is warmed up there is no rattling noise. Therefore (IMAO) no problem with the injectors or glowplug (?)

Look at the black smoke when revving up. Haha, WTF (??). This is the main problem I guess.

About the MAF sensor. Can’t find any small wires (pic). Something missing here??

and finally….. Found some pictures when I changed the fuel filter. It’s upside down… A classic nOOb mistake. Is that the problem?

AND when i bought IT 2-3 y ago the horn "beeped" everytime I locked the door. The "beep" is now gone. NOT a big issue (the door lock works) but I just thyought I inform u all about that.

Damn. Maybe its the diesel filter

Well. In my opinion there is probably nothing major with the old JEEP. Some kind of ez fix IF I can find it.
